Thats what I paid for my k5 sv650s as a new rider with 0 no claims. Thought it was a good price. The SV is one of the best sporty bikes for newbies and insurance me thinks.

Why the hell is a CG125 more expensive !!

Mine was only 170 TPFT for my SV. Only just passed my test too so 0 no claims bons. Couldnt believe it. That's with AXA through direct choice.

Heh heh, I'm just going through this joy trying to insure the Blade.

On it's own, no NCB, Alarmed and garaged in Northampton = most places were quoting me from £500 to £1100 TPF&T.

Then the amazing happened - I got a quote through Direct Chioce and MCE, both citing Equity Red Star and the underwriter, both quoting for TPF&T multibike policies that included:

'99 SV650S, no alarm, garaged.
'98 ZX6R Ninja, alarmed, garaged.
'98 CBR900RR FireBlade, alarmed, garaged.

Direct Choice said £416

MCE said £1079

There is some sense in the quotes. A CG or scooter is an easy target for the little ratboys to steal, and the superbikes get stolen to order, as there is a permanent market for racing engines, replacement bodywork ect. The SV is a middle ground bike, not so attractive to thieves, nor owned by users heavy on bodywork and engines.

If that's Direct Choice based in Newmarket, they are a very good brokers indeed.

They actually have staff that know what they're doing, especially in the claims dept, and the sales staff are not paid on commission so they won't sell you the the best product for them!

They also have a delegated authority from most insurers. If they like the sound of you on the phone, they can undercut the insurers premium quoted to get the business.

I work for an insurance company in the claims dept, and based on my working experiences with virtually all the big brokers, Direct Choice got my business for car and bike!
